Deforestation

Deforestation is the removal of forests or the cutting down


of trees which will end up to be a damage to the quality of
the land.Forests are cut down for many reasons, but most
of them that are related to money or to peoples need to
provide their families with shelter and many other things.

Causes of deforestation
Agricultural activities are one of the major factors affecting
deforestation. Due to overgrowing demand for food
products, huge amount of tress are fell down to grow
crops and for cattle gazing. Oil and coal mining require
considerable amount of forest land. Apart from this, roads
and highways have to be built to make way for trucks and
other equipment. The waste that comes out from mining
pollutes the environment and effects the species living
there. It is also caused by many forest fires.

Could deforestation be good?

sleep on or a place to live nor, would we have any T.Vs


due to the absence of land where factories will be placed.
In addition to this, we wouldnt have any tables, chairs,
papers, pencils and therefore we wouldnt be able to study.
So deforestation is good for us but, could it also be a bad
thing for us.

DEFORESTATION.A BAD THING?


Deforestation is a bad thing for the animals and plants
living in forests. The living things lose their habitat, homes
and many other things. Furthermore it will change the
climate of the place. As a result of this, it will cause global
warming, flooding and many other dangerous things.

Therefore deforestation can be a good and a bad thing for


the environment but, it would be better if we use a less
amount of trees for deforestation
